I was looking into this bug, and it looks like not feasible at this timeframe, because libgnomeprint parses TrueType fonts with their own library to embed the outline into PostScript. so if we are trying to support the synthetic emboldening in libgnomeprint, need to implement similar things in their own TrueType font library.
